Bottle split at CBC Gilesborn, thanks to Leighton, 25/04/18. Light hazed on an amber pour with an off white head. Nose is sweet malts, tangy stewed fruits, nutty, caramel. Taste comprises cardboard, soured fruits, boozey notes, toffee, bitter sweet bite. Medium plus in body, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a boozey edge. Not great.

33cl bottle from Abeervinum, Rimini, Italy. Expired. Pours unattractive dark brown, with some elements in suspension and practically no foam. Aroma is malty, woody. Body is slightly dense with moderate carbonation. Taste is moderately sweet, same for bitterness, and a nice sour from ageing. Finish is relatively long and pleasant.

Bottle from Toby. Dark amber, brown, kind of flat. Over sweet too. Prunes and raisins. Malty too. A bit too sugary.

T: chocolate malt, dark cherries, dried fruits, plums, caramel, syrupy sweet, booze, chocolate, molasses, full body, low carbonation, the cap on the bottle was so easily open so now I understand some rates about infected beers here, this is ok, tasty and good balanced but nothing very special yet, 0,33l bottle from Spar supermarket in Oostende.

Bruin bier met weinig schuim. Smaak is erg krachtig, zoet en erg fruitig, druif en bessen komen naar boven. Een bijzonder bier wat afwijkt van de standaard abt/quadrupel, maar daarom zeker niet slecht is.

Bottle. I have seen ratings about this gushing, but my specific bottle behaved itself. Pours very dark amber to brown. Surprisingly light ! Small white head fades fast. Scent is bit sweet, but not intense at all. Taste is sharp on booze and sugar. Not too complex. Just plain sweetness from sugar, with some maltyness underneath. Boozy, as said before, but doesn’t have the body to go with it.
